"Be what you would seem to be--or, if you'd like it put more simply--Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise." from "Alice in Wonderland"

New York Vanilla Ice Cream. If you are brave enough throw some into a pint o' Guinness with a touch of wipped cream and a cherry (similar to a root beer float)and you have my recipe for what I call a New York Irish.

Ahhh- you said the magic words- "if your brave enough!"- I just happen to have some bottles of Quinness in the fridge- no New York Vanilla ice cream, though. I imagine Breyers or something similar would work?

Thanks Robert Phoenix above for the idea for recipes made with Guinness. I started a new topic under recipes about recipes using Guinness. I find/collect them, try them, eat them and keep those that are owrth keeping. Right now I am looking for a complete meal from "soup to nuts" sort of things using Guinness in EVERYTHING. I am going to try the Guinness float this week during our time away in a cabin.

Veal Parmagiana tonight with some Bailey chocolates for a small desert. I'm still trying to find out a recipe for a chocolate brownie that had a white frosting and mini chocolate chips that used Bailey's as part of the recipe. Had it during the play Flannigan's Wake in St. Paul but was unable to get the recipe.
